CARACTHAIR
Caracthair

Hair that tells them who you are before you say a word.

A private hair studio in Ljubljana. Cut, colour and care shaped around your face, your days and your life in front of the camera.

The consultation before your first visit is free. Send us a photo of your hair as it is now and one of the hairstyle you would like, and we will tell you honestly what is possible.

Price up frontWe confirm the exact figure before the first cut.
One stylist, start to finishNobody hands you along.
14 days' graceIf something isn't right, we fix it free.

Character isn't copied. It's cut.

CARACTHAIR joins two words: character and carat. The first is what we look for in every client. The second is how we work: like a gem cutter who takes away only enough for what is already there to shine.

We don't reproduce trends from a screenshot. We look at your face shape, your hair's texture, how you carry yourself, how much time you have in the morning and where you'll be photographed. Only then do we pick up the scissors.

The result is a look that still holds three weeks later, not just three hours.

Your visit

From the moment you arrive to the week after.

  1. 0′

    Arrival

    No waiting room. Your stylist meets you at the door; coffee or a glass of sparkling is already poured.

  2. 10′

    Reading

    We look at hair and scalp under magnification, talk about how you live with your hair, and confirm the price.

  3. 20′

    Care ritual

    A wash with scalp massage and a treatment chosen for your texture. Reclining chair, warm towel, silence if you want it.

  4. 35′

    Cut and colour

    Your stylist tells you what they're doing and why. Nothing surprises you when you turn to the mirror.

    The week-after call

    A week later we call or message. If anything isn't as you wanted, we fix it at no charge.

Some clients want no one to see them. Others want everyone to.

We have a door for each. Choose at booking; we handle everything else.

What you ask us most

What if I don't like the result?

Tell us within 14 days and we'll correct it free, with the same stylist or another, as you prefer.

Why a consultation before the first visit?

Because the biggest fear with a new stylist is not being heard. We agree the look, time and price before anything is cut. It takes 15 minutes, in the studio or by video call.

Can you fix colour that went wrong elsewhere?

Yes. Colour correction always starts with a consultation and a strand test. Sometimes it takes two visits; we tell you that up front.

How does a private appointment work?

Tick it when booking. You get a slot outside regular hours, when there are no other clients in the studio. The supplement depends on the time.

What is the cancellation policy?

Reschedule or cancel free up to 24 hours ahead; 48 hours for longer colour services.
